My Darling, My Dearest novel Chapter 121

Rachel got the prescription from the nurse. As she read the instructions, her face contorted into a frown. She stormed out of the office to confront Kevin about this matter, but was stopped by someone.

As she lifted her head to see who it was, her eyes widened. It was the patient's mother. Her eyes were dark and it looked like she hadn't gotten any sleep at all since her daughter's operation.

The mother frowned. Neither of the nurses or doctors were updating her about her daughter's condition.

They had told her she that after twenty-four hours of observation, she would be fine. But it had already been more than several days and her daughter had yet to wake up.

When she saw Rachel speeding down the hallway, she stopped her to ask about her daughter's condition.

As the mother asked questions, Rachel held the prescription tightly in her hand. Yesterday, she thought Kevin would listen to her advice, but he didn't.

Rachel's heart sank as she tried to soothe the weeping woman.

Once she had helped the woman calm down, Rachel sped to Kevin's office. To her

disappointment, it was empty. Instead of turning back, she sat down in silence and waited for him to arrive.

As soon as he came in, Rachel stood up. "Kevin,

I have something to ask you."

"What is it?" He strode into the bathroom and made an apologetic gesture to Rachel. "Can you wait for a moment? I have to wash my hands first."

Rachel nodded and patiently waited for him to finish.

When he exited the bathroom, she held the prescription in front of him. "This belongs to the patient with heart disease."

He wiped his hands clean with a paper towel. "Yes, what's wrong with it?"

Rachel frowned. "I had suggested that you should change this medicine. Why are you still administering the original one?"

Kevin lowered his head again and examined the prescription carefully. His expression changed slightly. He nodded, remembering that she had indeed told him about this before.

But the patient's condition had changed, and he decided to overlook Rachel's suggestion.

He was the attending doctor, so he decided to stick with the original prescription.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to explain, Rachel interrupted him.

"How long have you used this? She hasn't gotten any better. You should be changing it!"

Rachel's voice got louder and louder, accusing ■d

him of misconduct. Kevin frowned, he didn't like her tone and became impatient at her inquiries. "Rachel!

I am the doctor in charge of her situation." Kevin raised his voice again in fury.

"Tell me, what's wrong with this prescription? Tell me!" His voice was full of anger. He heaved heavily in frustration.

Rachel knew that it was her attitude that annoyed him, but this wasn't the reason why she was here.

She took a deep breath and slowly explained, "I'm sorry, Kevin. But I don't think we should continue prescribing this medicine. Her condition has gotten worse. I fear that if we don't change it, then she'll be in great danger."

Kevin's face turned sour. He was a few years older than Rachel and had worked far longer in the hospital. He knew what he was doing.

Though he was a little inferior to her in terms of educational background,

he thought he was still much more experienced than she was.

Education and awards were not enough in the hospital. Clinical experience was so much more valuable in their field.

She didn't know much about the patient's situation,

so what gave her the idea that she could start dictating him on what to do?

Kevin became more and more annoyed. Impatiently, he waved his hand to dismiss her. ■d

"Alright stop talking! There's nothing wrong with the prescription. What are you trying to tell me, huh? I am far more experienced than you! I know what I'm doing! I know you are highly educated, but it doesn't mean that you are always right!"

Rachel was taken aback. She wasn't here to argue with him.

She lowered her head and apologized. "I'm sorry. I know that my words may have offended you, but I didn't mean to doubt the prescription.

I just wanted a clear explanation as to why you didn't follow my advice."

He asked coldly, "How can you even prove that your prescription is effective? If there is something wrong with the patient after the change, are you willing to take responsibility?"

Rachel kept silent for a while and then replied decisively, "Yes, I will."

Kevin didn't expect that she would say so.
